Generic Man sneakers....??

[snuff_daddy]

anyone got any feedback on em or are they just ****** compared to shoes like CPs

heres there The Generic Man 2009 Spring/Summer Collection

I like these two: Chuckman Black:

Sportsman White Canvas:

However, they're a little too pricey for me. I maybe would get a pair if they were under $100. I'm already pretty set on a white pair of Spring Court Mid-Cuts.

The greyish clay colored mid-tops are sweet, as are the white canvas mids, but I just can't get into the chukka/sneaker hybrid that generic man and common projects keep putting out.

Buyer beware...I have 2 pairs they a got cheap at a sample sale. They look good, but contain cheap materials. CP's crush them.

They look pretty generic, man

I own 2 pairs GM (the first and third shoe in the 2nd column up top), I own 3 pairs of CPs, and have owned other CPs in past. The difference between them is negligible. The leather and construction is marginally better on the CPs, but overall I like my GMs just as much and both are very solid shoes.

I also own both and agree with JD. Leather's better on CP's but they're over $100 more. The toe shapes are pretty different, I can definitely see having a preference for either.

I can't speak to their durability, but I definitely prefer CPs. I bought a pair of generic man lowtops on deep discount and I returned them the next day. They looked like orthopedic waitress shoes and the leather was fairly underwhelming.

Where can I but the white canvas sportsmans?

 

[snuff_daddy]

i think revolve is starting to carry them

that means u can get 30% if u are a first time shopper

the leather is terrible on GM.

 

[haganah]

and you care about the leather quality and durability because you wear sneakers for decades and will have them resoled?

This is so important an issue to you, that you had to say so twice?
